This
Java applet lets you choose colors and fonts for your
applications. The values of the colors you get, can be
used in many programming languages (not only in
Java). It will be very helpful for developers and
programmers as you can easily try out various
combinations of background and foreground (color of
the text) colors. You can also try out different fonts
in this applet.

To
set the foreground color, select the Foreground
option. Next, you click the color buttons at the top
for common colors (or "R" button to generate
random colors). The color of the text will change
accordingly. For finer shades you can use the
scrollbars to adjust red, green and blue values.

For setting background color follow the same
procedure.

Once you are satisfied, get the respective RGB values
from the text fields. These values you can pass in the
java.awt.Color constructor to get the desired effect
for your applications.

For use in html pages you get hex values too. You can
also use this applet to convert RGB values to hex and
hex values to RGB values.

To
try out fonts, just choose different options like font
name, size, and style. As soon as you make these
choices, the font of the text in the applet will
change reflecting your choices.

Note: If the applet is not visible properly, just
bring it in completely in view by scrolling, minimize
and then restore the browser window.
